Best automatic trans shifter?

[biminiLX]

I'm looking for a 3-speed forward-pattern shifter with a button for a MVB.
Looking at Hurst pistol grip quarter stick and a TCI outlaw, but open to suggestions.

Any recommendations?

I was always a ratchet shifter man myself

I always use the B&M Pro Ratchet shifter.Never like the idea of having to pull that lever for drive and that shifter can be used as reverse or forward pattern and comes with plates for alot of trannies

Im also a rachet shifter guy. It doesnt get any easier and its impossible to miss a shifter. I love the B&M Hammer plus its a clean look. I also like the outlaw pistol grip but its easier to miss a shift IMO.

Thanks guys, I am going to try to mount this in the factory location and use the factory 5-speed shifter boot. Many have clean installs this way like Balaska's. Any way to swap out that handle, kinda weird looking to me?
What would be the differences between the Hurst and TCI? Is it just a feel and preference thing like stick shifters?
How is it easier to miss with the Quarter Stick?
All advice appreciated.

I have a 1/4 stick with the holcomb adapter plate. It fits good, but I had to notch the shifter trim plate a little.

What times did you run that weekend that you tested the C4? I'm just curious.

You want that stick shift look?

LOL, can't wait to see what it does with the auto ... Did you hang a parachute?

That first weekend was 13.35 or so. I lost about 1 tenth and 2 MPH over the stick. That kinda sucks, but I haven't missed a shift yet. The best I have run with the C4 is a 13.2.

Not bad, car is probably dead nuts consistent.

It's getting there. I had alot of trouble changing from the stick last year with red lighting. The car is real consistent now. Hopefully I'll do okay this year.
